Figure 5. The National Forum Program Assessment OF/FOR/AS Learning
Intervention
The researcher thinks Figure 5 represents a realistic balance and effective
way to incorporate assessment to promote student learning. What must be
understood is that teaching and learning are meaningless without assessment.
If the three approaches are an integral part of the learning environment, the
assessment is also part of the learning process. The integration familiarizes
students with making decisions about their learning progress and planning the
improvement process. As a result, the teacher does not initiate the improvement
process alone. In integrating these three approaches, giving feedback is not
only done by the teacher but also by the students themselves and their peers.
The forum asserts, "Later in the program, students need to become less
dependent on the teacher for their feedback and more autonomous, self-
regulated learners" (p.88).
